Chapter 361: Deliberate Means
The palace of the Lotus Kingdom, the main hall of the early dynasty.
Today's early hall is different from the past, because at this moment, the entire hall has been opened by the Holy Emperor without regrets, so people outside can't enter, and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military ministers inside can't come out.
The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty in the main hall, in addition to all the officials of the imperial city above the fourth grade, there is also a fellow knowledge of the fifth grade in other provinces is also in the main hall.
In addition to these ministers, the Holy Lord Wu Regret and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are also above the main hall, and of course, there is also a goddess and empress dowager who only Jun Buyu and the general Yuan Feng know, and the Empress Dowager is also above the main hall.
It's just that the goddess and the empress dowager used the goddess mask to become invisible.
In addition, there are also the goddess Empress Dowager's head palace maid Phantom Lotus, as well as a hundred of the most elite royal guards.
There is also a magical little seagull that is also invisible, standing on the shoulders of the goddess and the empress dowager at the moment.
And it can only be seen and heard by the Empress Dowager and Jun Buyu, so it has become a messenger between the Empress Dowager and Jun Buyu, and is used to convey what the Empress Dowager wants to say to Jun Buyu.
Since the sealing mechanism has not been opened for a long time, the sudden opening mechanism of the Holy Lord this time also shocked the government and the opposition, including all the concubines and palace maids in the entire palace, as well as the royal guards.
Even the news soon spread throughout the Imperial City, and was spreading to all the cities and villages in the entire Lotus Kingdom.
For the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty who were sealed in the main hall at this moment, they were completely isolated from the world, and they didn't know that the atmosphere outside the main hall was also tense, like facing a great enemy.
Because at this moment, the outside of the main hall has been surrounded by three thousand golden armor royal forest troops wearing masked helmets and wearing golden armor, and it is impenetrable, even if a flying insect wants to get close to the main hall, it is extremely difficult.
These special golden-armored royal forest armies that had never appeared before seemed to emerge from the ground in an instant, and quickly drained the water around the main hall of the early dynasty with lightning speed.
And each of them wore a royal gold medal on their chests, and had supreme power, so the other royal guards and royal guards patrolling the palace all knelt down and saluted, and obeyed the words of each golden-armored royal forest soldier, and did not dare to slack off.
Under the command of these golden-armored royal forest soldiers, the entire palace was under martial law, and all the harem concubines were notified to stay in the palace and not to go out.
And all the gates of the entire palace are closed, and there are heavy guards inside and outside, and there is a golden-armored royal forest army standing guard at each city gate.
As for the imperial city, martial law was also under martial law, and all the people were told to stay at home and not to go out at will.
There were Guards patrolling every street, and the atmosphere became very oppressive and heavy. The gates of the Imperial City are also closed, and it is strictly forbidden to enter or leave.
All the people also talked in private, not knowing what was going on.
Only those old people who had lived for a long, long time, with vague memories and the golden-armored Royal Guards soldiers who had overheard the patrolling Kingsman mention, had a slight guess.
When they told their families about this idea, they also caused a shock and panic among their families, and they all felt that maybe the imperial city would change again, and maybe there would be a river of blood again.
As for other cities and villages outside the Imperial City, there was no martial law, so many brave people rushed to gather at the gates of the major cities, speculating with each other about what was going on in the Imperial City.
The timid people either hid at home and did not dare to go out, or simply packed up their things and went to relatives and friends who were as far away from the imperial city as possible, intending to avoid becoming ghosts under the sword.
Wait until the turmoil in the imperial city has passed in the future, and then come back.
The mansion of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, who was trapped above the main hall of the early dynasty, was also surrounded by heavy troops at this moment, and at the same time, no one in the palace was allowed to enter or leave, and was told that those who came out unexpectedly would not be killed until the ban was lifted.
So much so that the family members and subordinates in these ministers' palaces are confused as to why this has happened.
I only know that soon after the head of the family went out to participate in the morning court, a team of officers and soldiers came to surround the mansion.
In other words, at this moment, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, including those above the main hall of the early dynasty, and their families did not know what was going on.
If you want to say that the only person who knows, there is only one person who has no regrets about the current Holy Lord.
He is the only one who knows the situation inside and outside the main hall, everything in the main hall is under his control for the time being, and outside the main hall, only he can mobilize, and the golden-armored royal forest soldiers who are usually hidden deep underground have also taken over the entire palace according to the orders he gave in advance.
Including the entire palace and all the martial law in the imperial city at this moment, it is also in his plan.
The only thing that surprised him was the violent death of Nan Canghai, if it was not surprising that Nan Canghai died of poisoned arrows, it also showed that the main hall was up to him.
But Nan Canghai's violent death proves that there are variables in the development of things, and this variable is not easy to predict for Jun Wuregret himself.
It's just that at this point, he can only continue to do it, and then wait and see what happens.
First, let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince exercise, and second, let him come up with a way to deal with it and buy time.
Of course, at this moment, only he knows the true thoughts of Jun Wuregret.
Even the goddess Empress Dowager, who was also on the main hall of the early dynasty, that is, Yanyu and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, didn't know what Jun Wuregret thought, and suddenly opened the palace sealing mechanism without warning.
also inexplicably carried out a somewhat cruel game of life and death, putting the Manchu civil and military ministers in an extremely dangerous situation.
Even if they are not careful, they will be bloody, and the ministers here are all important ministers of the Lotus Kingdom who really control the world, once they suffer heavy casualties, then the entire Lotus Kingdom will even get out of control.
Although at present, the goddess Empress Dowager, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the general Yuan Feng have roughly known the purpose of Jun Wuregret, that is, to expose Shangguan Zhe's crime of colluding with the Five Poisons Sect, and to wipe out his henchmen in the court.
However, a few of them always felt in their hearts that Jun Wuregret's sealing of the palace today was a bit too hasty, and they didn't secretly investigate it in advance, and after making all the preparations, it was not too late to purge Shangguan Zhe and his henchmen.
As a result, he has become extremely passive now, and the sudden death of Nancanghai is the best explanation, that is, Shangguan Zhe has already secretly left a hand and has taken all precautions.
Although Shangguan Zhe was sealed in the main hall of the early dynasty at this moment, his face still did not change, obviously everything was still in the other party's strategy, and there was still a trend of gradually grasping the initiative.
This can be understood from the frightened and hesitant expressions of the Manchu ministers of civil and military affairs.
Although the poisonous arrows in the eyebrows of each minister always reminded them to tell the truth, the violent death of Nan Canghai made them understand that even if they told the truth, they could escape the poisoned arrow shooting, but they could not escape the tragic death of their eyes bursting.
For a while, he was also in a dilemma.
Just when the general Yuan Feng was the second to come to power and continued this game of life and death, the civil and military ministers in the audience were all nervously concerned about the Holy Monarch's no regrets, His Royal Highness the Prince's failure to meet and the General Yuan Feng's every move.
I was thinking hard about how to deal with it once it was my turn to take the stage in order to save my life.
At the same time, I am also worried about the family outside the main hall, that is, once I die under the poisonous arrows above this hall, then the mansion will definitely suffer, and it is not impossible to behead all the doors.
Even some ministers regretted that they had been a little lax recently, forgetting to keep an eye on the situation in the court, not detecting the crisis early, and implementing the insurance practice of letting their families leave the imperial city for temporary refuge in advance.
Now that he is in prison, there is no way to notify his family outside to escape quickly, and he regrets it even more.
And Shangguan Zhe, who was standing calmly on top of the main hall of the early dynasty at this moment, seemed to have no waves in the ancient well, calm and relaxed, but in fact, he was secretly surprised in his heart.
He also didn't expect that the Holy Lord would use thunderous means against him without regrets.
Although he hadn't come to the stage to read Yi Zhi and the letter, through Nan Canghai's performance just now, he had already guessed eight or nine.
Fortunately, he has made a lot of preparations in advance over the years, that is, he has taken precautions against the crises he may encounter in the future, including this Sand Sea Bamboo Leaf Tea, which is a Gu worm secretly developed by the Five Poisons Sect Leader that has been added to this tea.
He also taught Shangguan Zhe how to activate Gu worms, and assisted Shangguan Zhe in producing a large number of Shahai bamboo leaf tea containing this Gu worm, which was delivered to the mansions of all ministers of civil and military affairs as high-end gifts.
Since the leader of the Five Poisons Sect also added addictive ingredients to the tea, as long as you drink it once, it will be unforgettable, and there will be some kind of attachment and hallucination, so that these ministers have become an indispensable habit every day to drink this tea every day.
And once you drink this tea for a long time, you will cultivate this extremely small Gu worm in the meridians and blood vessels of the whole body, and when the Gu worm accumulates to a certain extent, as long as the right spell is activated, you can control a person's life and death at will.
Despite a lot of preparations, including the most vicious Shahai Bamboo Leaf Tea, Shangguan Zhe always thought that it would not be easy to use this killer feature in a short period of time.
Because he had always thought that what he had done was seamless, he didn't leak any rumors at all, and with the secret support of the powerful Five Poisons Sect Master, his plan was progressing very smoothly.
And the people of the Five Poisons Sect have secretly infiltrated all corners of the palace, and almost the slightest disturbance in the palace will not escape the eyes of the leader of the Five Poisons Sect.
At the same time, any unfavorable news will reach Shangguan Zhe's ears as soon as possible, so he will be so calm and calm and have a prosperous life in the palace.
It's just that what he never expected was that the goddess Empress Dowager would accidentally overhear the conversation between his daughter Shangguan Daiyun and the maid, and that maid happened to overhear his conversation with the killer of the Five Poisons Sect.
So much so that the Divine Empress Dowager knew that the Five Poisons Sect was going to assassinate other Lotus Birth Heavenly Maidens, and wrote the original letter to inform the current Holy Lord that he had no regrets.
That's why today's sudden palace sealing agency has opened a crisis.
Although Shangguan Zhe really couldn't figure out what went wrong, he still believed that his killer feature, that is, Shahai Bamboo Leaf Tea, would allow him to get through this crisis safely......
